This can be caused by gradual, age-related wear and tear called degeneration, poor posture, injury, and/or trauma.

Having a good posture can go a long way. Good posture helps the body function more efficiently. The spine is naturally curved in 3 parts, and maintaining the natural curves benefits the body’s physical state. Poor posture while sitting or standing puts stress on certain points of the body which can lead to joint dysfunction and muscle pain.

As we age, it is common for joint pain and stiffness to arise. In later years, the body produces less synovial fluid, which lubricates the joints and prevents the cartilage (that protects the ends of the bone) from drying out. As a result, joint movements feel more strained, and extra effort is required. Similarly, arthritis refers to a variety of conditions that involve pain, stiffness, and inflammation in one or more of the joints.
